failed JB?

Alright, I've gotten stuck and I'm out of ideas for troubleshooting.

I have a PW2 and have never jailbroken before. I was on the most recent update (5.8.5), device registered, special offers disabled.

I did a device reset and then installed the the factory image (factory_PW2_5.4.3.2_initial)

Since I have a pw-2 I followed the link to the old jailbreak page and installed the jailbreak by "Unzip the contents of the kindle-5.4-jailbreak.zip archive to the root directory of your Kindle."

It was successful and I got **** JAILBREAK **** message at the bottom of my screen. From here I did a restart since I saw mentioned it might be needed for next steps to work and I figured anyway, it couldn't hurt.

From here I'm under the impression everything is successful so I go to use the dummy test file linked in the post and...

From the archive contents in the "Dummy" directory, move the file: Update_dummy_0.0.N.bin to the /mrpackages directory of your Kindle.
If you do not have a /mrpackages on the visible root of your kindle, you either have a damaged JB or the JB was never installed.
I don't have this folder on my Kindle. Any ideas?
